Looking again.
Well, the offer we placed fell through. The sellers came back with a counter offer that gave both Keith and I red flags and we decided to take the offer off the table. We're ok, though. It would have been nice to be settled into our own house by Christmas but that is not going to happen now and we just need to make the best of things.
So, I'm going to start looking at houses again. Please pray that it all happens in God's timing. This is a huge decision. We certainly don't want to rush it.
I'm sitting here pondering over this whole process and I find myself thinking that there is a lesson in all of this. I think I still need to think and pray about it more but I do believe one lesson, especially for me, is going deeper in my trust in God. So much about this is out of my control; the houses on the market right now, the houses that will be coming on the market, the sellers, etc. I really have to trust in God's direction and watch for His direction. I'm feeling now like we almost made a huge mistake and He offered us a way of escape. Thank you, God!
So, we ask for you to continue to keep us in your prayers. God has a plan, we know this, and we want to follow it.
